  • President Tom Barkin is now taking questions from @MonMarketeers. https://t.co/TSA3S5t5gu
    Richmond Fed Thu 24 Sep 2020 17:40
  • Barkin: “Should inflation emerge, the Fed has the tools and the will to address it.”
    Richmond Fed Thu 24 Sep 2020 17:40
  • Barkin: “I remain focused on #unemployment, given the huge gap between where we are today and our target.”
    Richmond Fed Thu 24 Sep 2020 17:25
  • Barkin: “Inflation has actually been running persistently below the Fed’s 2 percent target. Recent revisions to the Fed’s long-run monetary policy framework aim to boost inflation expectations somewhat.”
    Richmond Fed Thu 24 Sep 2020 17:25
  • Barkin: “I have heard concerns about future #inflation resulting from the fiscal and monetary response to the pandemic.”
    Richmond Fed Thu 24 Sep 2020 17:25
  • Barkin: “Economic activity has rebounded since March and April but remains well below pre-#COVID19 levels.” https://t.co/8mqVVJf9Jy

    Manufacturing activity in the Fifth District improved in September, according to the most recent survey from the Richmond Fed. The composite index climbed from 18 in August to 21 in September, buoyed by increases in the indicators for new orders and employment. The third component index — shipments — decreased but remained positive, suggesting continued expansion. Survey results also reflected improvement in local business conditions and increased capital spending. Overall, respondents were optimistic that conditions would continue to improve in the next six months.
